The Fagor IFA90 Induction Unit: Buying

"It's no fish ye're buying."

Buying a Fagor IFA90 Induction Unit

(For general information about buying equipment through this site, please read this page; for general information about induction itself and its pros and cons, browse this entire site, perhaps starting with our page on how induction works.)

About the IFA90 Induction Unit

General Description

This is a nice, simple, clean implementation of induction. It is not as super-powered as some, but is an excellent answer for those wanting a 36-inch unit but not having the wiring in place to supply more than 40 amps (which is a not-uncommon situation). Note also that Fagor is the supplier of the "guts" used by many other brands.

About Actual Buying

To better understand the details of purchase and delivery, please read this page of information.

Placing Your Order

To order the unit, click on the button below; that will take you to the unit's "Buy" page on Select Appliance, the online retailer handling the purchase. When you arrive at that page, simply click on the ADD TO CART button there, which will look like this: dummy sample Select add-to-cart button (this sample is just that, a non-functional sample of what you will find after you click the button below). Clicking that ADD TO CART will place the unit in your Shopping Cart at Select Appliance.

Remember: You have not actually purchased the unit till you proceed from the Cart to Checkout at the Select Appliance site!

The item-buy page at Select Appliance will open in a new browser window. If you want to shop here for more products before checking out, you can just close that browser window, which will leave this page visible again. Items placed in your Cart should remain there for quite a while (days, not hours) till you're ready to complete your purchases.

Induction Cooking Equipment Available Through This Site

The following induction-cooking equipment (here listed alphabetically by maker) is available for purchase direct through this site. We ask that if you have not already read our explanation of why we hope that you will choose to make your purchases here you please take a look at it now.

Note! We are always expanding our offering of equipment at retail: in particular, the list of products we offer in the U.K. will be expanding greatly in the very near future. Right now, we believe we have virtually all residential equipment available at retail in North America at the best internet prices to be found, and we also have a good selection of the available commercial-grade equipment (which selection will be growing). If you're looking for a particular product and it isn't on our lists--and you're not in an urgent rush--please check back here from time to time (or email us with an inquiry).

Listed below, alphabetically by maker, is what we already offer. As a general guide, units described as "hob" are available in the U.K., while those described as 'cooktop" (or, for countertops, "unit") have North American availability.
(Besides actual induction-cooking equipment, we also facilitate your direct purchase of cookbooks--whether of any cookbook or from our lists of specially selected cookbooks; we are also in the midst of adding cookware listings--we already have cast iron, and should soon have clad.)
